How well do you stand out or "shine" amongst a dark landscape that is filled with brokenness and evil?
When trying to do good or the right thing, it is not easy to separate yourself from a dark world that is filled with brokenness and evil. Fortunately, we have the option and ability to overcome the darkness and these ongoing and difficult obstacles. Phillippians reminds us that when we "hold firmly to the word of life," "[we] will shine among them like stars in the sky" (2:15-16). Even through the darkness, there is a light, God's Spirit, that empowers us to continue good works with self-control, kindness, hope, and faithfulness (see Galatians 5:22-23). #keeplightingitup & #shineon
